@StanfordCISL Congratulations, Eugene!!

[Lexi Buchanan @LexiBtweeting]

@GongGasGirl How delightful!! Hope you have a great time!

[Lexi Buchanan @LexiBtweeting]

@purdy_eve Oh, I need to know more about this!

[Lexi Buchanan @LexiBtweeting]

Pitching to hospital exec for a sim centre at our tertiary institution. Must justify its existence. Seeking compelling data (?$ saved) and reasons with executive committee appeal. We've connected sim applications to NSQHS standards & hospital strategic plans. Any hot tips??

@purdy_eve (Asking at the risk of sounding completely ignorant)

[Lexi Buchanan @LexiBtweeting]

@purdy_eve What strategies do you use to get around the lack of reliably free clinical space to use for simulation?

[Lexi Buchanan @LexiBtweeting]

@ergopropterdoc @GongGasGirl @SocraticEM @drlauramazer @DrGetafix @StanfordCISL @jnlau67 @emolloy1 @DrNavSidhu @j_stokesparish @DrPieterPeach @inquisitiveGyn @kelliehbritt @DebraNestel Definitely a service first, but space is also part of the ask. I feel like I’ve missed a previous discussion (or two) about this topic with @inquisitiveGyn ! Appreciate that my brief wasn’t detailed.. wasn’t sure how to fit that in <280! I need to spend more time on Twitter!

Latest statistics reveal that 1,716 healthcare workers have been confirmed with #covid19 (3.8% of confirmed cases in China). We developed this infographic to hopefully promulgate principles for airway management during this current epidemic. #COVID2019 #nCoV2019 #FOAMed #airway

#COVID19 dedicated @GiViTI_IRFMN @MarioNegriIRCCS video conference with intensivists from North of Italy sharing their initial experience with #Coronavirus #SARSCoV19 epidemics: LUS, proning, MV #ECMO... it's like a tsunami, you can't understand if not in #FOAMcc #FOAMed #FOAMus

T-226: The main priorities during ALS are to (1) give good quality CPR (2) minimise interruptions to CPR and (3) minimise time to defibrillation

[Lexi Buchanan @LexiBtweeting]

T-228: Mx. of airway obstruction - no universal "best approach". Right personnel, right equipment for skill level/familiarity, right time, right place = best outcome. Oxygenation is absolute priority (don't forget HFNC O2!)

FFP & S/D treated plasma should only be used if other therapies are not available. FFP can have a paradoxical effect of making the angioedema acutely worse - must be prepared to intubate if this happens!

[Lexi Buchanan @LexiBtweeting]

T-229: C1 inhibitor deficiency (hereditary angioedema) Rx options:
- Purified C1 inhibitor conc.
- Ecallantide (kallikrein inhibitor not avail in Oz)
- Icatibant (bradykinin-B2-R antagonist)
- FFP or solvent-detergent treated plasma (rx w/ viral inactiv agents b4 freezing
